Hi guys
I was looking for a bit of advice, I am looking after my neighbours cats for the week while she is on an easter break however i think one of them may be pregnant, i know she hasnt been 'done' and her teets are really large.
Im not sure what to do really as she is a very shy cat and doesnt like being handled too much so it is difficult to get a look at her (unlike the other cat who is in constant need of attention lol).
Should I just leave her be and hope she holds off till my neighbour gets back? And is there anyway i could definately know she is pregnant?
thank you

Are her nipples leaking milk as they give birth a couple of days later.
They tend to put weight on around the sides. At first they look like a rugby ball then they fill out.
She might have an increased appitite
She could become more effectionate as well
She might try and build a nest.
When does you neighbours come back. A pregnancy last any way between 61-65 days. Does she go out side at all if she does i would keep her in as if she is further along in her pregnancy she could have them else where.
I hope i have been some help.
I suppose she'll have to decide what to do when she gets back unless you can contact her.
She is back on Friday so not too long, i was just worried i should be doing something different, feeding wise or something?
She is an outdoor cat but is equally happy indoors, i have kept her indoors so far as i was a bit anxious if i let her out she would just sit at my neighbours window and i wouldnt get her to come back in lol.
She does seem to be going into a lot of quiet cosy places, behind the couch and in the cupboards but i couldnt say for sure that this isnt because she is quite an anxious cat and is in a strange place?
I will keep an eye on her and let you know how it goes
Mmmm, new kittens! Gorgeous....but do try and get neighbours to get her spayed as soon as kittens are weaned.
She does seem to be a bit rugby like shaped but it is very difficult to tell as although she hangs about in my garden daily she usually backs away when approached so not really noticed her 'normal' shape!!! It was the teets that i noticed which are really large!
I do think my neighbour is intending on getting her spayed as the older female has been done and i am sure she has mentioned it before, but if she does have kittens i will be keeping one of them
OOh, Kittens are always better in twoes...or threes!
